But I must run héme. My poor nose is nearly frozen." "Say, you better come in and get warm, and see what an old bach's shack is like." She looked doubtfully at him, at the low shanty, the yard that was littered with cord-wdod, moldy planks, a hoopless wash-tub. She was disquieted, but Bjornstam did not give her the opportunity to be delicate. He flung out his hand in a welcoming gesture which assumed that she was her own counselor, that she was not a Respectable Married | Woman but fully a human being. With a shaky * 'Well, just'a moment, to warm my nose," she glanced down the street to make sure that she was not spied on, and bolted toward the shanty. She remained for one hour, and never had she known a more consid- erate host than the Red Swede. He had but one room; bare pine | floor, small work-bench, wall bunk | with amazingly neat bed, frying-pan |and ash-stippled coffee-pot on the | shelf behind the pot-beliied cannon- ball stove, backwoods chairs--one structed from half a barrel, one from a tilted plank---and a row of books incredibly. assorted; Byron and Ten- nyson and Stevenson, a manual of gas engines, a book by Thorstein Veblen, and a spotty treatise on "The Care 'Poultry and Cattle." There was but one picture -- a magazine color-plate of a steep-roof- ed village in the Harz Mountains which suggested kobolds and mald- ens with goldén hair. Bjornstam did not fuss over her. He suggested, 'Might throw open your coat and put your feet up on the box in front of the stove." He tossed his dogskin coat into the bunk, low- ered himself into the barrel chalr, and droned on: '"Yeh, I'm probably a yahoo, bu' by gum I do keep my independence by doing odd jobs, and that's more'n these polite cusses like the clerks ia thé banks do. When I'm rude to some slob, it may be partly because I don't know better (and God knows I'm not no authority on trick forks and what pants you wear with a Prince Albert), but mostly it's be- cause I mean something.

I want you to come around and saw up four cords of maple for me," he says. "'So you like my looks, eh?" I says, kind of innocent. "oy difference does that make?

'Nope," 1 says, 'thinking it all over, I don't like your ap tion for a loan. Take. it to another bank, only there ain't any,' I says, and I walks off on him. "Sure. Probably I was surly--and foolish. But I figured there had to be one man in town independent en- ough to sass the banker!"

At the door, she hinted: "Mr. Bjornstam, if you were I, would you worry when people thought you were affected?" "Huh? Kick 'em in the face! Say, dt 1 were a sea-gull and all over sil- ver, think I'd care what a k of dirty seals thought about my fying?" It was not the wind at her back, it was the thrust of Bjornstam's scorn which carried her through town. She faced Juanita Haydock, cocked her head at Maud Dyer's brief nod, and came home to Bea radiant. She tele- phoned Vida Sherwin to "rum over {this evening.' * She lustily played Tschaikowsky---the virile chords an echo of the red laughing philosopher of the tar-paper shack.
